Product Description
Clinically specific information for identifying, resolving and preventing plant intoxications in animals.The geographic area involved is North America and the species emphasized are horses, cattle, sheep, goats and other ruminants such as Llamas and Alpacas.

A Guide to Plant Poisoning of Animals in North America deals definately with types of problems such as sudden death, neurologic effects, liver effects, urinary effects, etc. Each chapter contains information of the plant on the habitat, description, principal toxin, clinical,treatment if applicatble and exhaustive references.

This is the only resource that approaches these problems in the way that the clinican must.The typical poisoning presents as a fact (dead animal), or a sympton (severe drooling), and tracing the cause is not always easy.The trick is to relate the problem to possible toxins and to relate that information to specific plant types.The organization of this book follows the logic that the clinician useswhile other resources approach it from a purely botanical point of view and are basic science oriented.Amazon.com Review
What's the appropriate treatment when Fluffy decides to eat Oleander? What are the presenting symptoms indicating that Bowser may have come in contact with poison ivy? Dr. Knight, DVM at Colorado State University, has compiled a comprehensive, system-based title containing common North American plants and their toxicological effects on large and small animals, along with diagnoses and treatment. This title should be in every vet's library. --Carolyn Lewis ... Read more

Vital Resource for Horse Owners
After a recent bout with a little known plant toxin affecting my prized stallion, I searched through various horse/pasture guides and discovered that they were either incomplete, or didn't correctly list the true distribution of the weed/plant across the United States.Ultimately, I found this book and despite its price decided to give it a try.I have been delighted with the depth and breadth of information in this book, and it is particularly comforting to be able to read about ALL possible things that I need to look for in my pastures.If you own horses, or care for them on your property, do yourself a favor and get this book!Its also great to protect my dogs.
